Not strictly 'under construction' as the kit is built but I thought I'd share my progress about painting the model as this might interest some people (I hope!). I did start it off as a blog but that seemed a bit strange to me, so I'll go for a traditional thread!
Here are some pics of the almost complete kit.
Being a Dragon kit, the detail is excellent, the fit of parts rather vague at times & the instructions are written by a blind,feeble-minded idiot who's never assembled a model in his life! Having said that, it only took about 10 days off & on to get here. The photo-etch was a challenge & I've not used all of it because it became too much after a while!
Next is the primer stage which I always do for Dragon models-their plastic seems to need this so that the paint 'grips' the surface.
